The Kemper Profiler enables you to capture the sound and soul of any amplifier inside a lunchbox-sized amplifier.

The Kemper Profiler enables you to capture the sound and soul of any amplifier inside a lunchbox-sized amplifier. You can now create your own profiles from amps that you know and love and take them with you to use anywhere you like. Variations with alternative amp settings can be created and even the cabinet of a profiled combo amp can be exchanged at any time. Dozens of pro-grade onboard effects and stomp boxes can be used to spice up the profiles.

Profiling is as simple as plugging your tube amp into the Kemper Profiler and pressing ‘record.’ Just insert the Kemper Profiling amplifier into the recording chain and it will do its magic. Test signals will be sent from the Kemper Profiler Amplifier into your tube amp and recorded by the microphone in front of your cabinet. You don’t even have to play your guitar. After less than a minute the Kemper Profiler acquires the sonic DNA of your tube amp and offers you the resulting custom profile. You can then use the A/B comparison mode to compare original tube amp sound with the profiled sound.This gives you a fast and convenient way to make final tweaks to the profile to get it exactly right.

The Amplifier section is the heart of the Kemper Profiler. The sound of the amplifier is based on the profile loaded into the rig. A great selection of intuitive and powerful macro parameters empowers you to perform modifications which are impossible with an traditional hardware amplifier. Many things become possible from changing the age of the virtual hardware to the response to your play. You gain direct access to tube settings, such as the tube symmetry. The Kemper Profiler is equipped with a traditional bass / mid / treble / presence equalizer similar to what you already know and love from many amp heads.

The Kemper Profiler captures the cabinet as a part of a profile. Thanks to digital alchemy, the Kemper profiler can distinguish in between the cabinet and the amp head within a profile and therefore enable you to mix and match both in which ever way you like. Imagine you can exchange cabinets freely in between amps, even though those amps were combo amps before. You can even warp cabinets from "tiny as a cigarette box" to "larger than life" with one parameter.

The Kemper Profiler offers 4 independent stomp effects slots which can host a full arsenal of stomp box effects including painstakingly modeled famous overdrive and distortion stomp boxes, compressor, reverb, several delays, and a beautiful rotary speaker emulation. Kemper has created accurate models of classic retro modulation effects such as a variety of chorus, phaser and flanger pedals. All stomp effects can be edited and copied conveniently between presets. And for your overview and convenience, color coded LEDs are used indicating which type of stomp has been used per slot.

Really amazing sound and versatility. New librarian software is a savior of a product otherwise devoid of proper computer support.

The device has amazing enough sound to forgive the otherwise really abysmal (completely non-existent) computer software support for setting up and managing rigs and their components.

The product is 5 star in every other way but really needs the kind of software programming capability found in all other modern competing products. Having to do everything with the front knobs and buttons gets old quickly.

Hopefully Kemper will hear us all making this point and respond with some software to address this one serious deficiency in an otherwise 5 star product and since I ultimately believe they will eventually address this deficiency I am giving it 5 stars even with this one (significant in my opinion) shortcoming.
